Description:
The body of an ankylosaurus is covered with thick bony armour and ends in a massive club-like tail. This dinosaur walks on four legs and eats plants. It is 15 feet long, 4 feet tall, and weighs 4-5 tons. An ankylosaurus is usually found in jungles and hills of "lost world" areas.
Combat:
Dinosaurs take full advantage of their size and speed. The great herbivores frequently overrun and trample their opponents.
Trample (Ex): An ankylosaurus can trample Medium-size or smaller creatures for 2d6+5 points of damage. Opponents who do not make attacks of opportunity against the ankylosaurus can attempt a Reflex save (DC 23) to halve the trample damage.
